USA-ISRAEL: A HOT POTATO


The war in Gaza has shown, for the first time in recent history, the existence of a crisis, surely temporary but real, between the United States and Israel. President Joe Biden and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu have clashed on a few occasions, although the last word has almost always been given by the Israeli leader.

Biden has repeatedly insisted to Netanyahu that the lives of innocent Palestinian civilians be respected. But what has been the reality? Israel has not stopped for a day bombing hospitals, schools and refugee camps, killing thousands of Palestinians with no responsibility in the conflict.

No later than yesterday, Israeli forces killed 34 civilians in the bombing of a school theoretically protected by the United Nations, in Nuseirat, in the center of Gaza. “The massacres must not continue,” the White House has declared, without any result.

In November the United States will elect a new President. If Donald Trump is elected for a second term, Netanyahu and his government will be jumping for joy, because they know that Trump will let Netanyahu do whatever he wants. They saw this during his first term.


Trump moved the American embassy to Al-Quds (Jerusalem); he said absolutely nothing about the murder of two Americans: Rachel Corrie and the journalist Abu Akelh; he recognized that Western Sahara belongs to Morocco, and he pressured the Arab countries to recognize the Hebrew state.

If Kamala Harris is elected, it will be the first time we see a female president of the United States. Netanyahu will not be jumping for joy and, instead, he will be furious, although he will show it discreetly.

In any case, Kamala has already hinted that, as President, she will not be the activist that she was, before being Biden's vice president, when she supported the Palestinians and condemned Israel for depriving them of an independent state. As President, she will act with moderation, following the line left by Biden.

That said, if the Gaza war does not end in November, it will be a hot potato for both Trump and Kamala, because we owe it to Netanyahu that tensions in the Middle East have grown and the genocide in the Palestinian enclave continues. The United States, with Kamala or Trump, will not push for a truce, much less a ceasefire while Netanyahu remains in power.

The hot potato is not in his hands, Netanyahu. He knows what he wants, he says it and he tries to end the war with his victory. Which means that the enclave will be occupied as the West Bank was, without the Palestinians being the ones to govern.

And all this against the opinion of a part of the Jewish government, because the minister, Yael Gallant, and others, are in favor of Palestinians leading the enclave; unless it is the Palestinian National Authority (PNA) and, of course, Hamas and other terrorist groups.

We can be sure that Israel will celebrate the appointment of a new American president by firing salvos of shells, missiles and drones into Gaza. Netanyahu will not be handing out candy like the Palestinians do.


NOTICE: A4RABINFOCUS made a mistake in a recent article stating that 44,000 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza. The Ministry of Health in Gaza tells us that the actual figure is 41,000. We regret this error.

                         لماذا نحن هنا؟ Information is an important element in the world we live in. Fake news leads us to believe the opposite of reality. In a Middle Eastern region where the bloody war in Gaza continues, it is important to report the truth; the genocide and Israeli crimes against the Palestinian people, as well as the situation in Syria. This is what we do at ARABINFOCUS. We have therefore humbly asked for donations from members of the HH Arab Royal Houses; from His Highnesses Emirs and from important Muslim personalities who have the financial means to make a donation. We have asked them for a simple donation. Only one anonymous Saudi helped us. All the others have ignored us and have not given us even  a dinar.  Why this ignorance against ARABINFOCUS? Our fight against Jewish Zionism deserved help. But a HH Crown Prince; HH sheikhs; HH emirs;  Prime ministers; all have scorned us, instea...

          IS FOOTBALL MORE IMPORTANT THAN ARABIC CULTURE? Qatar and Saudi Arabia have invested hundreds of millions of dollars in hiring top-class soccer players in Europe to elevate and give greater prestige to their national championships in this sport. Football is a global distraction and, therefore, there is nothing to criticize about these operations. It is absolutely normal and correct that the two Arab countries have made that expense. But this situation moves us to ask some questions: 1.- Soccer is more important than the values of the culture of the Arab Nation. ? 2.-Is Soccer more important than reporting and condemning Israel's criminal aggressions against the Palestinian people? 3.-Is Soccer more important than defending Islam and its values and teachings, when it is being subjected to unfair attacks from some Western countries? 4.- Is Soccer more important than explaining and defending the values of the holy book of the Quran, subject of attacks, de...

                ONE HUNDRED KILLED IN THE ATTACK ON A SCHOOL IN GAZA Genocide and war crimes continue in Gaza, although Prime Minister Netanyahu says he is willing to resume peace negotiations. In the attack on a school this Friday, 100 Palestinians died, some of whom are women and children. Israel justified the missile attack, stating that the school served as a refuge for Hamas militants, but has not presented the slightest evidence to justify the version of the Jewish armed forces. It's the same old story. Every time Israel attacks a school, a hospital or a refugee camp, it justifies it by claiming that those places were used by the military branch of Hamas. But don't look for proof because there isn't any. The school attacked with missiles was Al-Tabin, in the Daraj area, in the capital of the Palestinian enclave. The school was completely destroyed. Meanwhile, the Palestinian and Lebanese populations continue to wait for the announced attack ...
